Hans’ Sowbug (Sow Bug Fly Pattern)

Posted on May 7, 2012 by admin in Fly Tying Video, Nymphs - No Comments

Hans’ Sowbug

Hans’ Sowbug is an alternative to some of the more common sow bug fly patterns. This pattern has worked quite well on the Bighorn River. The Ray Charles pattern works great, but it is nice to have a slightly different fly to try if the fish get picky.

Materials:

  • Hook: Tiemco 3769 size 14-18
  • Thread: UTC 70 Denier
  • Tail: Coq de Leon
  • Rib: Ultra Wire
  • Abdomen: Ostrich Herl Tan or Gray
  • Flashback: Black Krystal Flash
  • Shellback: Thin Skin Clear

Happy Tying
